The Ocelot

Reserva Amazonica campaigns against poaching, which is common in the Southern Amazon and protects young stray animals by raising them until they can be safely released in the wild. The ocelot mother was killed by poachers and the cub was found in the jungle. Growing up accustomed to humans might also be a problem later on when the ocelot will eventually have to fend for itself.

Being remote and far from the capital it was never found by the Spaniards and the site was quickly overgrown by the jungle. In 1911 explorer Hiram Bigam found this lost city and after National Geographic in 1913 did an entire inssue on Machu Picchu the city of the Inca came to the attention of the world. The World Heritage designation in 1983 called it " an asolute masterpiece of achitecture". less

The Hotel was built on a hilltop on the plan of the ancient masseries, the old apulian farmhouses as a comfortable 4 star resort, a few steps from one of the most pristine seas in Italy. Like the old farmhouses it has its own orchard where seasonal fruits and vegetables are grown for its kitchen. Their family restaurant on the beach right below the hotel is a hot spot and serves the freshest local sea food. From San Gregorio one can hire a boat to ride along the coastline which is dotted with Paleolithic caves and endless coves for bathing. The trip continues to Leuca and its lighthouse. This is the southernmost tip of the peninsula where the Ionian sea and the Adriatic sea meet. If one is in the mood for culture the city Lecce is very close by. This is a jewel of a baroque city with dramatic architecture and a lively scene. Highly recommended. 73053 Loc.
